Dylan Farrow’s name has been bandied about in the media since she was a small child, thanks to the allegations that her father, Woody Allen, sexually abused her—claims he has consistently denied. She has reiterated those claims in a 2014 open letter, a 2017 op-ed, and a CBS This Morninginterview earlier this year. Now, Farrow is making her first foray into the book world—not with a tell-all or a nonfiction tome, but with a Y.A. novel.

Farrow signed a two-book deal with St. Martin’s Press imprint, Wednesday Books, for a duo of fantasy Y.A. novels that will follow the theme of how “those in control of society can manipulate and silence the truth through magic,” according to a statement quoted by Entertainment Weekly.Hush, the first book in the series, is said to be looking at a fall 2020 publication date.

As the New York Postreported, the book prompted excitement among New York editors, with Farrow turning down a pre-emptive bid of $250,000. “From the very first sentence of Hush we knew we had to have it; her sharp, gorgeous writing captured the entire team instantly,” Wednesday Books editorial director Sara Goodman said in a press release. “We cannot wait to bring her considerable talent to readers everywhere and build a long-lasting relationship with this exciting author.”

While Farrow may be approaching the question of sexual abuse and misuse of power obliquely in a fictional forum, her brother Ronan has amassed a reputation for his journalistic exposés of systemic abuse perpetrated by powerful men like Harvey Weinstein. Ronan recently signed a deal with Little, Brown and Co. for a book titled Catch and Kill, described by the publisher as “a deeply personal story about a reporter grappling with how much to put on the line to protect the truth, and a story that expands our understanding of the forces in law, politics, and media that maintained a conspiracy of silence around Weinstein and other men in power committing gross abuses with impunity.”
